REST API error : Request Entity Too Large
When trying to upload file to bucket (file size is 12mo), I got this error: Request Entity Too Large
I'm using REST API because I'm calling appwrite from n8n workflow on a HTTP node. Please help.
TL;DR
REST API error "Request Entity Too Large" occurs when trying to upload a file larger than the 5mb limit. To resolve this, developers need to stream files to the server using HTTP chunks. The Appwrite SDK handles this automatically in the background. More information on using the REST API with larger files can be found at https://appwrite.io/docs/apis/rest#files.
Each request payload is limited to 5mb. If you want to upload larger files you'll need to stream them to server using http chunks
You can see here how to use the REST API with larger files: https://appwrite.io/docs/apis/rest#files
if you're using the Appwrite SDK that is already taken care of in the background.
